Ian said it seems like every time he goes back with a another problem, he feels it should have been caught earlier. He stated they are friendly and pleasant, but he feels the problems should have been caught in one visit and he has been back quite a few times.

Second visit. Scheduled oil change. Had vehicle there 7:45 am. I assumed it was first come first served.Guess not.Done 4:30 PM. I should have asked when I made the appointment about the timeline. I had the day off, but had company coming late afternoon & also had a pick up at local airport. Saturday pick up of car not an option as I was not in the area.My advice is for just an oil change to take vehicle a quick lube place if time is issue. I think they are good at Marty's and deserve their reputation. But I probably will go elsewhere for the non-repair type service. I was hoping vehicle would have been completed by noon-ish because of my hectic early evening commitments.

Jay said he feels this business charged him too much for the service. He was told that it would be a couple hundred dollars but it ended up being over $400. He knew of one belt that needed to be replaced but this business replaced three without his approval. He stated that he feels a dealership would not have handled everything the way they did. He would not recommend this business to others for the reasons mentioned.

We have reached out to this customer and after discussing the issues in detail with Marty he has agreed to re-review us. It is very very important to us that our customers are HAPPY...we go above and beyond to have make sure our customers know we care.Thank you so much for allowing us to EARN your trust.Sincerely,Marty DiSanto, owner

All in all, they fixed my car correctly which is better than other mechanics could do.

The reason for not having a higher rating is due to the fact that they didn't recommend that I replace my water pump when they were working on the timing chain. That is a big deal to me because any back yard diy machanic knows that both should be done anytime the labor is required to work on one of them.

Also, after they gave me back my truck, the radiator shroud came partially loose. Marty's promptly fixed it the next day. I inspected their work and found that instead of fixing the shroud properly, they used a zip tie to hold it out of the way of the fan. I called Marty to ask him if zip ties were their go to, he said to bring it back in and they'll fix it right the second time.

This all took almost two weeks.

That being said, Marty's has great customer service and both Marty and all his crew are a very approachable and friendly.

Dear Mr. Rice, We apologize that you had to bring your vehicle in more than one time in order to get the problem fixed however, as we had discussed, in order to make this a VERY affordable repair an "after market" (gear only) replacement part was used instead of the complete seat track assembly. The after market part was slightly different and corrected one problem but created the seat memory to not work properly. Therefore, a second trip was needed to address this new concern. After diagnosing this new issue, the magnetic sensor was transferred from the old stripped gear onto the new gear which corrected the seat memory problem. This repair took a bit longer but saved MANY dollars. Thanks again for choosing Marty's Auto Works and we hope to continue to save you money in the future! Sincerely, Marty DiSanto, owner

For other services it has been good but this one nothing was found and two days later the light came back on

Edmund brought the car to us because his check engine light was on. We hooked his vehicle up to our scanner and pin point test showed all components related were functioning properly. Codes were cleared and did not reset on extensive road test. We INFORMED Edmund that the check engine light would likely return which it did 2 days later. We asked Edmund to return the vehicle to our shop for re-elvatuation at no charge. Edmund was understanding because we HAD explained this situation up front.

I really appreciated Marty personally calling me after the problems from my last service. They stepped up and took care of the problem. I'll definitely keep bringing my vehicles to Marty's Auto for all my service needs.

couple of issues

I usually have no problems with Marty's Auto but on my last visit, I specifically asked them to call me on my cell phone...not my home phone (they have both) when they had an estimate. They called my home instead which resulted in delaying the work that needed to be done.
The also forgot to grease the new ball joints that they installed.

Marty D., Owner from Marty's Auto Works responded on 10/19/2013

After reviewing the entire situation, we realized that a lot of the delay in delivering Mr. Fetcher's vehicle was due to poor communication with the sublet alignment shop. We have contacted Mr. Fetcher and apologized for this inconvenience and offered compensation. He has agreed that this was an uncommon occurance at Marty's Auto Works and the he has always received excellent service in the past.

Dawn said it took the business a day and a half to replace her tires without a tire rotation. She was told a worker from a different location stopped by to fill in for someone and there was no communication. She chose not to elaborate further.

I apologize for this mistake. We had an emergency come up that was simply beyond our control so things kinda fell through the cracks. We are truly sorry for your troubles with this repair.

After getting my truck repaired here and paying the outrageous bill I did more research on what it should cost and found out it is a 12 hour job got charged 24 parts are about 1400 got charged 2500 other than that truck runs good.

Marty D., Owner from Marty's Auto Works responded on 02/28/2018

We have reached out to Greg and discussed the service performed on his truck in detail. He has agreed that he was charged a fair price. It is very important to us to make sure that our customers always know that were treated fairly and provided the best possible service and the best possible price.

Steven said this business had his vehicle all day. The instrument cluster part they installed did not work and the part was defective. A new part has been ordered and they are waiting for this to be delivered.

We have made this issue right with the customer and he is now pleased with Marty's Auto Works.

Pete said he drove his vehicle today and it broke down on him. Marty is a top man. He has been going to this business for 34 years.

We picked Pete's vehicle up from his home, fixed the problem,washed & cleaned his car and delivered it back to his home free of charge. Needless to say, he is still a very HAPPY LOYAL customer of Marty's Auto Works.

Kieth said he had to finish the work they started after he got home. The hose clamp to the radiator wasn't installed fully. He had to finish it because it was leaking fluid all over his garage floor. If this is what they call quality control, it's bologna so he's not going back and won't recommend them for this reason.

Marty D., Owner from Marty's Auto Works responded on 11/12/2013

The "bologna" is in the customers hands on this one. We explained to Mr. Jackson that his vehicle has a blown head gasket and this is likely what caused the hose to come off (due to over pressurization). We also explained to Mr. Jackson that this engine has excessive metal in the crank case which indicates that the engine was previously severely over heated and also has a timing chain noise. A replacement engine was recommended but Mr. Jackson only requested a replacement radiator and we were CLEAR that this would NOT repair the problem and now he is upset for no valid reason.

Gene said he received a call and reconciled with the business. He was offered free services that he may be using in the future.

Gene said his visit to this business was not that good. His vehicle was 2-3 days later but he was not kept informed about the vehicle. When he picked it up, the vehicle was still knocking. He thought changing the tie rod bearings would quiet the noise but it did not, so he said the vehicle was not completely fixed.

Marty D., Owner from Marty's Auto Works responded on 10/19/2013

After reviewing options that were offered to Gene he chose the more affordable option with NO guarantee knowing that it would NOT proberly fix the vehicle. He informed us that he intended to trade this vehicle in and simply wanted the least expensive option. When this did not prove to be a lasting repair Marty's Auto Works chose to offer Gene a partial credit. This vehicle was subsequently traded in and Gene was happy with our offer and has agreed to correct his review.

Clay said he called the business when they were ordering the heads for his vehicle. The parts were refurbished and one had a notch on it, but it was not supposed to, so they had to order another one. He had to bring back his vehicle because his oil pump was clogged. He said the business was supposed to flush the oil and gunk out. He would not recommend the business based on this experience.

I used them a couple times and always suspected they're charges were high but I figured I had to pay for quality. The most recent repair they quoted $1200 for a new PCM, I had it towed to a shop a few miles away and it was fixed for $390.00, I consider this robbery and Marty's will not see my money again

I spent a lot of money,and a lot of parts were replaced on my old Jeep.Unfortunately it's
still running rough.I brought my Jeep back,and complained about this,and they replaced some
more parts,which I was charged for.Unfortunately it is still running rough,

Rick,Thank you for taking the time to speak with me about your concerns. We appreciate your willingness to work with us.

Marty's went out of their way to resolve my issues and earn my business. I feel very comfortable with their level of expertise and customer service. I will continue to use Marty's for my auto repair needs.

“Free” Inspection

Found this shop on the AAA website as an approved shop, took my Jeep in for the “free” 40 point inspection that ended up costing $47 and provided estimates for 1,200 plus in repair estimates. Left not very happy, the very next day, the O2 sensor that I had replaced a few months earlier falls out of its socket where it was epoxied into. I was barely able to drive it back in the next day and had to pay another 275 to have it replaced again.Overall, I’m out $325 and the car drives the exact same as when I brought it there 2 days ago. Won’t ever use Marty’s for another repair.
